Short, Straight Hairstyles for Parties

Hayden Panettiere Short, Edgy Hairstyle

Hayden Panettiere's new look is a bold way to go from long to short hair. See how to get it:1. Ask your stylist for a short, cropped hairstyle with root-to-tip layers at the back of your head and longer layers in front.
2. Apply a volumizing mousse to your roots and tease the top of your head. Now put some gel on a comb to slick back the sides of your hair, and comb the back of your hair downwards.
3. Spray your hair with a strong-hold hairspray to keep it in place.

Kimberly Caldwell Short, Blonde Hairstyle With Bangs

Kimberly Caldwell's blonde bob is a sweet choice for short-haired gals. Get her look:1. To get the look, blow dry hair straight with a round brush.
2. While blow drying, slowly pull the brush from root to tip, bringing in the ends as you near your chin.
3. Use a straightening iron on the ends of your bangs to make them extra defined.
4. Mist with hairspray to keep your gorgeous face-framing layers in place.

Jessica Stroup Brunette Updo

Jessica Stroup's chic updo works perfectly on straight, layered hair with long, sideswept bangs. Steal her style:1. If your hair is already straight, great. If not, just blow dry it straight with a paddle brush (use straightening balm if necessary).
2. Gather hair into a bun, either straight back or to the side, leaving your bangs and a few side pieces out. Secure with an elastic and bobby pins.
3. Make a deep side part with leftover pieces and flatiron them until they are super sleek.
4. Mist with shine spray if you want an extra glossy finish. Then set the entire look with hairspray.
